Here we go with another day in the life!
6:30am
I’m up and doing a little computer work with coffee before the boys are awake. I haven’t been sleeping as well lately (it’s either anxiety, my dinnertime glass of wine or aging hormones) so I haven’t been getting up as early as I was.
7:15am
This boy has been sleeping a little later lately! (Knock on wood.) Must be the cozy sleep sack! (I just saw this one – how cute are those planets?!)
8am Breakfast
Confession: sometimes I eat out of Birch’s plate to save washing another dish! It’s kind of nice to have the dividers 
English muffin, hard-boiled egg, blueberries.
9am Walkie + Podcast + Workout
We cruise around the neighborhood. Sometimes firetrucks come with us. (Mazen spent the night at Matt’s so he’s not home yet.)
11:30a Lunch
I’ve been eating early while Birch does because it’s more efficient than waiting until he’s down for nap and getting everything out again. I made a salad with another egg, carrot chips, sharp cheddar, avocado, marcona almonds and a basil caesar dressing I found at Whole Foods.
12:30pm Nap –> Shower + Work
Birch is down for nap. Mazen is home. I take a speed shower and put on a little makeup.
Mazen and I play fort for a while and I’m able to sneak to the computer to catch up on a few things.
2pm Garden Photos by Mazen!
3pm Birchie is awake!
Our Rava car seat arrived and I unpack it while they play in the box. It’s SO nice! (FYI, more colors just went on sale. If I had a little girl I’d be all over the rose color!)
A Halloween catalog keeps us all entertained for a good 25 minutes. We each pick out things we want!
3:30pm Popcorn for a snack!
4p Outside Play Time!
5:45p Taco Dinner
Tacos! I know you have seen hundreds of tacos this year. Tis the year of the taco!
Dive into bed
(Yes the clock says 2:44 – I took this earlier – but I DO go to bed when the sun is still up most nights )
Reading: Summer of ’69
Dreaming of: Big parties with friends in 2021
Lights out: 9:30
Night!

Love the book you are reading! I have read like 4 of her books this summer…
Kath Younger says
Yes I’m really enjoying the time period! And even though it’s set 50 years ago, the racial and feminism themes have been relevant too.
Katie D. says
Loved that book. I read it early in lockdown and was sucked in.
Maggie says
I love your bedding! Would you mind sharing where you got it, or your fav place to shop for quilts/comforters? I’m in the market and would love to know. Thanks!
Kath Younger says
Thanks! It’s the Pick-Stitch quilt from Pottery Barn.
Elyse says
THANK YOU for letting us know about the car seat! When I checked (last week???), it was already sold out and I was bummed. But, after reading your post today I checked right away and snagged one. Thanks again!
Kath Younger says
Yay!! Mine came and it’s amazing. So intuitive!
Nikki says
Since you mentioned Matt, I thought I would ask if he got remarried too.
Kath Younger says
He’s engaged!
Karen H says
Great photos of the garden, Mazen!
Terry says
Have to ask about the makeup – what is the pretty lipcolor? Beauty counter shade? I have a hard time telling by the website
thank you!!
Kath Younger says
It’s The Fuchsia Is Clean – a limited edition shade in a beautiful paper tube : )
